It was exactly that bad. The whole of 3 was mostly a misfire but with enough redeeming moments that it COULD have stuck the landing. It would've never lived up to the potential the trilogy still had left (yes, even after ME2) but it would've upheld an OVERALL level of quality that cemented the trilogy as a hallmark.

Now it feels more like a Harry Potter. Like, we all know Harry Potter, but we also easily associate it as a really geeky series for weird fangirls with harry potter tattoos.

Mass Effect has become the same but it's just bisexual kink fetishist libtards who cry about Mording's 10 second death scene that happened spontaneously and was only as central to ME3 as Fai Dan's self-headshot was on Feros in ME1.
